I'm waiting for my OB office to open so I can call and talk to a nurse. I jumped on the scale last night and noticed that I gained 10 lbs since last week...I didn't think much of it at first, until I mentioned it to the ladies on my BMB and they threw out the word "pre-e". I should add that last week, at my 28 week appt, I was only up 12 lbs from my starting weight, so gaining 10 in one week is definitely abnormal.
So since it was after hours at my OB office, I looked up the symptoms (shame on me, I should know better) and it mentioned swelling and headaches as well. I had the worst swelling and headache yesterday, but hadn't thought much of it.
Someone please tell me to breathe and that everything is going to be fine. Only a few more minutes until I can call.
Re: I hate waiting... :/
I hope everything is ok. Try to stay calm and breath! I know easier said then done but calm down.
Let us know what they say
I've been weighing myself every week or so just to make sure it's steady, and it's not the weight that concerns me so much as the sudden jump. I've also been having crazy headaches and spotty vision. I've been blaming that on the weather and the fact I work at a computer, so I hope that's all it is.
I have an appointment this afternoon. So a little more waiting, but hopefully I will get some good news so I can just relax.
Im just concerned because my blood pressure at my last appointment, even though it was normal, was high for me. And I'm hoping it didn't jump with my weight.
